Proud that two years ago this month we opened the Chubb O’Reilly Enterprise Center, Breech School of Business, and Thompson Conference Center as part of our $75m 2016-2023 campaign. We also started 10 new non ncaa sports, created dozens of majors and our signature Fusion Program
Bottom right is at the Grove Park Inn Asheville, NC on Sept 13, 2024. Three weeks later this is the view. This puts life in perspective. Praying for all who are suffering.
This is a memorial to Benjamin and Jeremy Wise. Two Hendrix College brothers who could have gone to graduate school and Med school but instead joined to serve our country after 9/11. One a seal and the other a ranger. They were both killed in Afghanistan defending our nation. We created place with purpose #edulorics to recognize them through placemaking. I honor the incredible sacrifice of the Wise family.

Our liberty, personal freedom and ability to speak truth to power, or question the socially acceptable norms are all at risk in a dangerous in our nation and world. whether or not Harris or Trump win this fall. American’s will rue the day we ended up with these two - Trump and Harris
The opening Olympic Ceremony usually features something of the art, culture, music of the host country as well as a unifying theme around the history of the games. The French have presented not French culture or European culture but rather a mockary and dismissal of it. Not to be taken seriously? It’s art? It reflects well on the openness and tolerance and inclusion of France as a world citizen?
I don’t think so. This so self absorbed. And shows a French neurosis, self loathing, and fear.
And then what is up with the horse? In trying to critique the Old Europe and to celebrate the new Europe the French have just demonstrated the identity crisis plaguing the West and the French in particular.
